Play sent mine yesterday My dad forwarded the email to me, but it doesn't seem like they've sent Blood Stone yet. It's great to have a REALLY well-recieved Bond game for once. I'm not sure if any of the reviews mention this, but how long is the campaign?

Behind The Music



xxx

Just watched the behind the music and the video. She sounds uncannily like Tina Turner. I thought she was terrific in Dancing with the Stars (and I admit I never heard of her before that) so I never heard her actually sing. So, I don't know if Nicole Scherzinger actually sounds like this when singing or is trying to imitate Tina Turner. Either way, it is a resounding success. It's always good to see someone so excited about being involved with Bond. And it is a shame that they did not use Nicole for the QOS song, which was atrocious. If she is marketable enough for the game, why wouldn't she be for a film?

I admit just watching these two clips have gotten me excited for the game. I own a Wii but admittedly have only played it a couple of times. I use it primarily for Netflix. I may just put this game on my Christmas list?

BTW, anybody know if David Arnold's score will be released separtely?

The Campaign is kind of short but the mission's are about 30 minutes long, and the music is really cool , a lot of the bond theme!

[British Chap]

Damnit. Still no new gameplay footage anywhere.

Facility question for anyone who has played:

Spoiler

The trailer has the bathroom kill occur like the movie, hanging upside down. Meanwhile, the gametrailer review shows the guy in the traditional N64 placement and a shot to the head. Which is it?

Opening credits of the game in HD, with a downloadable link of the title song in the video description.

i doubt there will be other remakes, but it would be kinda cool to see some of the classics remade if they are done right, and i'm talking about pre-brosnan films. thunderball, ohmss, tswlm, tld...even frwl again as long as its 1st person and doesn't suck

You can do either/or. Or even a third option. The first time I played, I just dropped down into the stall and exited, and the guy was leaving. The second time through, I went above HIS stall and went in upside-down, Brosnan-style.

Supposedly the campaign on normal is about 8 hours, which is normal length for a FPS these days. The Call of Duty games are usually a couple hours shorter. The harder difficulty levels have extra objectives and are presumably longer.

Agree on the music in single player... it's great. Have just played a couple of the single player levels & about 3 multiplayer matches.

I think this is easily the best Bond game since the original Goldeneye. The SP is very good and cinematic. Levels are fairly linear but there's always multiple ways to approach a situation (and you have the choice between stealth and going in guns blazing). Usually a couple different paths.

The MP is basically Call of Duty: Modern Warfare with some tweaks, but that's not a bad thing.

[DamnCoffee]

So is the Bond theme used heavily?

Did they use that updated GE64 Nintendo "sting" for anything?

[coco1997]

Not really...except in the St. Petersburg tank level.

HAHAHAHA THE RICHARD KIEL VIDEO IS AWESOME!

[Nicolas Suszczyk]

Question: what happens in GE and BS when you die?

Spoiler

Blood drip again?

And...

If you fail a mission in GE (i.e. Killing Natalya, a Scientist, etc.)...

Spoiler

The mission is automatically aborted (as in other Bond games) or you can keep playing (as in N64)

haha, great vid with richard kiel "you know oddjob is a cheat!" that was treat!

[British Chap]

A Youtube channel call Mahalovideogames has a walkthrough of the game. I watched the Dam level and the first part of Facility. That was enough to wet my appetite until Christmas. Game looks freaking amazing. Looks like a great balance of old Goldeneye and new. It's going to be tough learning the entirely new levels though. Facility looks especially different. Can not wait.

Can't believe they actually took the time to make this game right. I was so worried it would be another Goldeneye: Rogue Agent. Goldeneye forever!!

[DamnCoffee]

I was laughing more at the intense exhale he did at the end with the golden controller.

[PeteNeon]

Both games arrived for me today! The gold controller is great, I've just started the Facility level, loving it so far.

[MattofSteel]

Any input on the score from anyone? Not owning a Wii, that's really all I care about at this point.

Interested to hear thoughts on Arnold's contributions, especially.

[Rich Douglas]

Here is some in game footage.... basically much of the entire sequence involving sneaking into the facility. Warning... tons of spoilers within, but damn does it look (and SOUND) amazing.



The music is unmistakeably Arnold. Great stuff.

Hey can anyone tell me if there is good bond music in "local" multiplayer not online? I only can find one wii controller at the moment, and i cant play with only one controller haha.

The pretitle sequence is pretty nice. The song actually sounds like Tina Turner's voice. Very impressive

Can someone explain to me why Brosnan's image is not being used for this game?

[coco1997]

Can someone explain to me why Brosnan's image is not being used for this game?

Because Pierce Brosnan hasn't been James Bond in six years.

[Emma]

Can someone explain to me why Brosnan's image is not being used for this game?

That doesn't make sense. Sean Connery wasn't in the role of James Bond when they released 'From Russia With Love'.

[Mr.Zukovsky]

Legal issues is the actual reason Brosnan was not used!

[Mr Teddy Bear]

Because EoN would rather promote Craig as Bond, and there is no gaurentee Brosnan would want to work on the game anyway

It's nothing stellar.

[Matt_13]

Not done with it yet but I'm genuinely bored with it already. Aside from some lovely moments in Valentine's club, this game really doesn't feel like a Bond title, just a Call of Duty clone. That said, it's a very good looking game, and matches Night Fire in terms of graphics on the Wii. Still, it's basically just a shooter. I might be getting too old for this sort of straight forward gaming, but it's really just not doing it for me. I recommend Blood Stone for the true Bond fan.
